Instalove and safe!

This installment of the Clearwater Curves series was short and safe. I do wish they had gotten together sooner in the story than they did.

-no cheating
-no ow/om drama
-no violence of any nature
-great epilogue

I've read two books in this series, and both were god awful. Pretty much every "fat" stereotype known to man is included. Everything is described as "plump" or "thick" or "ginormous" or "juicy" Everyone makes nasty comments to the heroine about being "fat" (a waitress, an ex, some skinny person at a weight loss meeting <--- no idea what she was doing there...etc.) Both books have nasty people insulting the heroine by saying she eats "all the carbs" Like WTF?! LMAO Seriously, what in the world were these author's thinking??

Another enjoyable read. It's quick and safe without drama. Just a feel-good story.

It's about Domani and Stella.

Four years ago, she was late to arrive to the weight loss support group and met her three best friends.

He's looking for galleries for his family's historical collection and he found Sharp Curves Gallery owned by her.

For two months, he had someone keep track on her until he can meet her in person. He's a wealthy man who owns a vineyard and a very busy person.

The day after Wyatt and Lanie's wedding (book 1 H and h), she has a meeting with him. She has a big crush on him but he's a potential client and she doesn't want to ruin her business by being intimate with a client so she tries to push him away but he won't let her.

It has nice epilogue. I love it!

This is the third book in the Clearwater Curves series, and it's by the amazingly talented C.M Steele.

I loved how take charge and possessive Domani was.

Stella was awesome. I loved how sassy she was.

Sweet, short, full of naughty fun time. Insta-goodness galore!

Oh, and did I forget to mention they were both virgins?! Be still my heart!

4 big stars!

Domani De Luca knew the moment he saw Stella Sharp she was it for him. After carefully planning out every detail of meeting her, Domani makes his move. Will Stella accept all that Domani has too offer.

This was a fun quick read. I wish it had been a bit longer but over all entertaining read.

This is the third book in the Clearwater Curves Novella series by various authors this one was written by C.M. Steele. Four years ago Stella was having a crappy day and she was running late to a weight loss meeting. That’s the day Stella met her three best friends for life. She owns Sharp Curves Gallery and she has a very important meeting with Domani DeLuca. The DeLuca family is bringing a showcase of art from Italy to the US. and they are meeting with gallery owners across the country. Domani has wanted Stella ever since he saw her picture on her bio for her gallery. He has already planned their life together even though they haven’t met yet. Stella has seen his picture online and she’s been crushing on him ever since. Both of them are completely captivated with one another even though their first meeting is a bit awkward. Dom was a sex on a stick hottie who spoke Italian, what more could you want ?

fast pace very adorable book.. you can read these as standalones..

I enjoyed alot of things from the female friendship to how boss bish Stella was she worked hard and played hard and when she met Domani boy oh boy the first moments were I'm "punch you then kiss you" type of banter. She did put up a front until he left for work they had alottt of time away which sucked but the longing grew. Domani is like any OTT alpha i know he did spy, have a slight obsession and if anyone talked badly about his girl.. shit 😉 once they reunite tons of heat between the two.

No ow/om, no cheating, sexy times, Secondary charas, both virgins

Reccomend- yes/maybe

Sharp curves is book three in the Clearwater curves series. This story is short, fast paced and a sweet read. I read this book within half an hour and was satisfied throughout. I really liked that this story was based around Curves. I loved that Stella was confident and stood up for herself. I really liked how she met her best friends and that they bonded over the fact that they were curvy. The friendship between them was nice to see. I liked Domani. He knew what he wanted and that was Stella. I liked how obsessed Domani was of Stella. He was a full on cave man when it came to other men being around Stella. The chemistry between Stella and Domani was clear to see and I really liked them as a couple. I just wish that this story were longer because I wanted more of them. I loved that both Stella and Domani were each other’s firsts and that they saved themselves till they met the right person. Overall, I enjoyed this short story. I liked the characters and the storyline. I loved the epilogues/so many years later, the love between Domani and Stella was sweet and I liked seeing Domani with one of his children.
The storyline for this book is easy to follow and it is a nice read. I cannot wait to read more books from this series and more from C.M. Steele.

I loved Stella and Domani's story so much <3 Their chemistry was off the charts HOT and their connection the first moment they met was instant :)

I was so happy to see Stella with her bffs, Lanie, Avery and Fancy still there for each other, no matter what. That's what friends are for, to support you and be there in times of need.
I also loved the epilogues so much <3 I loved seeing Stella and Domani's love and passion for one another never wavered with time, instead it intensified and they made a beautiful and big family together and I loved reading about it, it was truly beautiful was true love can become <3

C.M. Steele always writes awesome epilogues and she didn't fail in delivering a great story to her readers with this third book of the Clearwater Curves Series :)
Can't wait for more from this author and to read the last book of this series because I'm dying to read Avery's story next and find out who her love interest will be ;)

me encanta esta serie... es muy interesante la verdad ....
en esta ocasion es la historia de Stella, quien es amiga de Fancy y Lanie quienes un dia coincidieron en el centro de ayuda para bajar de peso Clearwater y por cosas de la vida se encontraron alla mismo con una modelo que las humillo pero como Stella es la mas acelerada le dio un puñetazo y le rompiola nariz. Luego de esto se fueron a un bar a conocerse mejor y se volvieron amigas para ayudarse y defenderse entre ellas.
Por parte de Stella, ella vivia enamorada de su jefe el Sr De Luka quien tiene viñedos y quien viajaba mucho ... total. se fueron a vivir a otra ciudad ............ y le tocaba comunicarse con las amigas por videollamada. ah si !!! se caso con el jefe.

This is book 3 in the Clearwater Curves series, and it comes from the brilliantly talented C.M. Steele. This is the sexy, voluptuous Stella and intense, possessive Domani’s love story. I really enjoyed reading Stella and Domani's story so much. Stella is sassy, sweet and just one strong heroine. Dom is a sexy, possessive and swoon worthy alpha hero. I loved how both main characters were virginal and make tons of steam together. It was strong, hot, steamy and exciting. It is very much a must read in this awesome series and I am looking forward to book 4.

My Rating: 4.7 stars *****

An awkward mess

When I read a C.M. Steele story, I am not expecting Proust. However, I do expect to at least be able to understand what the author is saying. This is so poorly written and edited, I spent way too much time trying to decipher it. The pacing and storyline are also awkward. I have no idea when this couple fell in love, they just suddenly were, and not in a cute insta love kind of way. More in an unfathomable, let's just skip all story development kind of way. This is just a hot mess. The epilogues were the only mildly interesting parts. Very mildly interesting. The rest of the story was a hurried hot mess.

That was quick.

Wow! Took me no time to read at all, but it still had all insta-love elements of a novella. I love stories where the hero dotes on the female protagonist. The one thing I really dislike, however, in any Kindle I read, is poor editing. This one was more distracting than normal with obvious semantic errors that should have been easily caught. I think it shows a decided lack of integrity to publish any book that isn't polished to perfection before expecting others to read it. This is why I only gave it 3 stars.

Sharp Curves by C.M Steele
3rd book in the novella clearwater curves
Stella and Domani was my favorite couple, He was so HOT. Stella has her own gallery and Domani wants to use her space to show his family's art collection. Doomani has been waiting to be close to Stella but he finally has the opportunity and he takes it. He was so cute waiting to see her all excited, his Italian side had Stella swooning.

Most of this author's book H are an OTT alpha with a bit of stalking issue, though they refused to be called stalker; just a bit determined. The story flows nicely and brings a few notable topic like body shaming, low self esteem, and a bit into bullying. I like that this book also tries to show that girls and other girls can be bff and be there for each other; supporting others with such empowerment entails and not bringing each other down. Every girl needs another girl bestfriend. Always.

Loved it!

This whole series thus far is awesome! Short, sweet, sexy, insta-love. My kind of novella! Domani is super sexy and i definitely wish i had one of him for myself. There is plenty of super hot lovin in this book, and it provides a short break from daily life to get lost in a sexy Italian man and his one and only. Absolutely a must read!

Loved this look! I didn't enjoy the 3rd book in the series as much but it was still good. The books in this series can be read as standalones but I definitely suggest reading them all and in order. They're great short books that despite there length still have good character development. Heads up, they are insta-love so if that's not your thing these books are not for you.

Stella and Dom's story.
You could be reading so much more, this series is just so great. But it's a short read, perfect for taking it with you. Maybe enjoying it at the beach?
4 curvy BFF's and everyone gets their own story, but it's still connected.
So read in order and go on a adventure with possessive man who claim their women.

Super sweet and fun

3rd book in the series and the 1st one I’ve read. It’s super cute and sweet. Love seeing all these BBW women books and how the h is (for the most part) confident and sexy in her own skin. Love that positivity!!!!
